1. Sorrow lives in my heart for he who was delayed
The one with high aspirations though now humbled and small

2. The noble individual is now disconnected and exposed
Due to what a struggler hopes for beyond the era

3. Oh how a bitter soul is from what it was exposed to
I did not prefer to witness or see

4. The elders of a people in the palms of the young
For time is an enemy when its sides are revealed

5. And when the era reverts, so too do its morals
It robbed the leadership from the hands of the virtuous

6. Time played with us and will not be unfair
To the valiant it distinguishes from the treacherous

7. Oh you who seek a sun in a treacherous night
What do you hope for from an unjust era

8. That has placed the righteous in the grip of the wicked
